Opinions on the Olka C3L? (also general mouthpiece recommendations)

Post by MelodicTuba »

Looking into purchasing a new mouthpiece for my Eastman because my previous mouthpiece doesn't have the right shank. From the mouthpieces I've tried I like the Helleburg, Giddings Baer MMVI (previous mouthpiece), Shires 4e, and I didn't like the PT-50 in the past but that could've changed because it's been 2 years since I used it consistently. Thoughts?

When listening to people play testing mouthpieces on the 4/4 Eastman 632 and 832, the Olka C3L has been a consistent winner. American shank on the EBC-632 and Euro shank on the EBC-832.
